The Magic Kingdom

The Magic Kingdom was the first Disney theme park to open in Florida and is the most like the original Disneyland in its design and attractions.

The Magic Kingdom is laid out somewhat like a wagon wheel, with the entry being up one of the spokes (Main Street, USA). At the far end of Main Street, USA is The Hub, the center of the seven themed lands, with paths leading off in all directions.

At the center note the statue of Walt and Mickey, "Partners". Other castings of this work by long time Disney sculptor Blaine Gibson also grace the Disneyland parks (a companion piece featuring Minnie sitting with Walt's brother Roy, who completed Walt Disney World after his brother's death, is located at the Train Station end of Main Street).
